ABSTRACT CARRIAGE AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSPORTING ARTICLES. Apparatus for transporting articles (32) comprises a plurality of spaced, substantially parallel axles (4) coupled for movement by an endless chain drive. Each axle (4) extends substantially transversely to the direction of movement and has a number of carriages (2) coupled thereto. The carriages (2) are spaced along, and pivotably mounted on the respective axle (4). Each carriage (2) has a skid member (10) supporting two pairs of wheels, the first pair of wheels being carried by the respective axle (4). The articles are supported on the wheels (6,8) as the carriages are pulled along on their skid members (10) over an appropriate support. If it is required to inspect the articles, the wheels are brought into contact with elongate support members (20, 22) so that they are rotated and thereby rotate the article carried thereby. Deposit of an article is achieved by removing support from the respective carriages (2) so that the carriage pivots relative to said axle (4).
